Dear Parents/Guardians,
We would like to thank the students and their families for making our 2025-2026 Saint Andrew Religious Ed program a wonderful and great year!! Your time and dedication has made this a very successful program.
Last Saturday May 2, 2026, Mrs. Siciliano's First Communion class received their First Holy Communion. Congratulations to all our First Holy Communion students and their families. Please keep them in your prayers. May the grace of this sacrament strengthen their faith and bring them closer to God each day.
In the coming week, we will be producing a full report of the classes your child attended and the at-home assignments that they completed. Any absences or incompletes may be made up in the coming months to fill out your child's record of completion.
We will be checking in with you periodically over the summer with tips and ideas of how to foster your child's faith during the summer months. If you have any questions or needs, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. We will have the registration information for the coming year (2026-2027) and the schedule for our program in mid-summer.
Many Blessings,
-David Heimann

Religious Education for Next School Year:
We will inform you when the schedule and registration materials for next school year will be available. You do not need to re-register your child. We have a practice of continuing enrollment and only cease to enroll your child if you instruct us to do so. Any children joining our program for the first time do need to register.
We do ask that you share information about our program with your friends and neighbors. We want everyone to know of the love God has for them and are pleased to open our parish and our religious education program with anyone who is Catholic or seeking a deeper relationship with God.
Missed Chapter Reviews?
If your student missed any chapter reviews for the year, We will be offering opportunities to make up missed chapters. A report will be sent in the coming weeks as well as links to complete any missing online reviews.
